Herein, sulfur/bamboo charcoal (S/BC) composites with a sulfur content of 57.7 wt% were prepared by melt-diffusion method as cathode materials for Li-S batteries. An initial specific discharge capacity of 685 mA h g(-1) and a reversible capacity of 414 mA h g(-1) were obtained after 500 cycles at a 0.5 C (1 C = 1675 mA g(-1)) rate, with only 0.079% capacity fade. Meanwhile, the S/BC cathode can deliver a stable discharge capacity at the current density from 0.1 C to 3 C. The improved cycle stability and rate capability of the S/BC composite cathode materials can be attributed to the well-connected, highly ordered porous structure of BC and the self-deposited passivation layer on Li anode.
